Be a Unique Emoji in This Fun App

Bitmoji is a fun emoji utility app and web extension for Windows including Windows 11 that lets you create personalized emojis with a personalized avatar and copy and paste them virtually anywhere on the web. Acquired by Snaps Inc. and now a part of Snapchat’s platform, Bitmoji can be used as a web extension or just a mobile app. It’s part of the popular line of emojis available in most messaging platforms. 

Be Creative

Emojis are quite popular when it comes to messaging apps and virtually any place where you can type and chat. From web forums to private messages, it’s easy to use various emoticons, emojis, stickers, and even GIFs to express yourself without using words. There’s even a variety of augmented reality emojis that can be activated via facial recognition.

Due to the sheer number of these animated icons, though, it can be pretty hard to stay unique from the big competitors. However, Bitmoji manages to move away from the bland and boring and gives you the chance to get really creative with your designs. A surviving spin-off app, Bitmoji came from Bitstrips.com. It was a web application that allowed users to create comic strips using personalized avatars, with preset templates and poses.

It had encouraged self-expression without the need to have artistic skills and gained popularity from Facebook and mobile platforms. However, Snapchat’s developer company took over the operations and shut down the comic service, only leaving Bitmoji active but still highly popular.

Easy Self-Expression

Bitmoji, like Bitstrips, allows you to easily create a custom avatar. It offers hundreds of options to be able to create your own likeness or another character entirely. You can also dress up your avatar so it matches your real-world style. These series of face shapes, body types, hair, and clothing all serve to make you stand out from the crowd. After the fun customization, though, it’s time to make your Bitmojis.

Your avatar will be posed in various ways to create the emojis. Since they’re preset templates, you can’t change much about them—you can only change your avatar’s appearance. However, Bitmoji in Snapchat also allows 2-person Bitmojis called Friendmoji, wherein you and your friends can be featured in one emoji. Bitmoji can be sent and inserted almost anywhere, especially if you have its Chrome extension. From Snapchat to Gboard to emails, you can use your personalized emojis and look different from the rest.

The biggest drawback to Bitmoji is the small pool of options when it comes to clothing and emoji customization, though. Bitmoji aims to be simple and easy-to-use so it doesn’t ask much input on your end and you can quickly set up your avatar to be used. However, really creative people will find much of the preset templates in Bitmoji’s features lacking and limiting.

Show Off Your Style

Bitmoji is a fun little app that gives convenient and one-of-a-kind emojis you can flaunt anywhere. If you’re finding most emojis dull nowadays, you can give this a try. The only warning you’ll be given is how addicting it can be for a few hours. However, don’t expect this app to have it all. There’s still so much customization they could offer and Bitmoji still remains a simple app for those who like complicated designing.
